There is no god!

I may have already responded to this statement, so just call me Randy ... Uhh ... Redundant.

Anyway, I do not profess to know anything about what 'real' reality is, except that we are technically 'brains-in-a-vat' and can never know. However, we do need some common ground for discussion.

I agree wholeheartedly, but one has to assume that a god would be so far beyond our comprehension that our 'reality' is too simplistic for such a being. Then there is always the, "Why would a god want in the first place" argument, but that is not what this thread is about.

Thank you.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

Science is like a blabbermouth who ruins a movie by telling you how it ends. There are some things we don't want to know. Important things.
